How do I update the school Principal's name?

← Managing a Sentral System
Common school details, such as the current school Principal's name, can be managed within the School Details section of the Sentral Setup. These settings automatically flow through to any area that requires the use of these details.

To change these details:
  • Click on the Sentral Setup Cog > School Details 
  • On this screen, update any school details (such as Principal's name) to their new values.
  • Click the Save Changes button.
You have now successfully updated your school details.
If the old Principals name still appears in letter it is because you have hard coded the name of the Principal (or other details) in the actual template, instead of using the appropriate merge field. You will need to edit the relevant letter template and use the appropriate merge field for the information instead of writing the name or other detail directly in the letter. Sentral will then substitute the current school details when it generates the letter.
